Eighty couples, eleven of whom
were from Island Pond, attended the
annual ball at Willoughby Lake last
Monday night. Although very hot, it
was generally declared the most pleas
ant of the many successful gatherings
Of the kind that Mr.. Richardson has
had at that house. The supper was
equal to any ever served at the Lake
House which has reputation for good
tables Bigelow's Band furnished
music in their usual excellent manner.
Many of the party spent the following
day ut the hotel and returned home
after the heat of the day. We are in
formed by Mr.. Richardson that the
prospects for a lively season at the
Lake House are good. Mr.. Frederick
Condit and family, of Morrisville, N.
j., have already arrived ; Rev. J. Ii.
Twitchell, OF Hartford, Conn, and
party Of twelve will be there the 18th
inst, it being the fourth season for
most of the party, and other old guests
of the house have expressed the inten-
ton to revisit the Lake this summer
1t is not necessary to say very much
about this resort to the readers of the
HERALD. Many of them know about
it by experience and to the others and
the public we would say visit the Lake
for few days and you will be pleased
and surprised, and, if your experience
is like that of many, fascinated with
the beauty and comforts of the place.

Fargo, Dak., Dec. 2S-The recent ar
ticiea in New York newspapers intimat-
ing that Bishop Walker ard Mrs. Kate
Noel, daughter OF Judge Wakeman
were coon to be married, are pronounced
fabrications by the friends OF both par
ties. The bishop states he did not know
the lady until she came to Dakota, and
therefore the remark about really love
affair is q fnlsehood. 1t is against Che
express tenets OF the Episcopal church
to even solemnize q marriage with a di-
vofced person unless the separation was
in consequence of the principal cause,
and while the lady is one highly esteem
ed and honored on every side, the friends
OF both deny that there is anything but
friendship between the parties in inter
est and that is all there can be. Both
are much PANIED at the extensive circu-
lstion OF the story.
